摘要:
An elevator load bearing member assembly includes at least one roughened surface (46) on a polyurethane jacket (44). In one example, mechanical roughening is used to roughen the surface (46) after the jacket has been extruded onto tension members (42). In another example, the temperatures used for molding a jacket (44) are controlled to induce melt fracture and roughen the surface (46) during the forming process. Other examples include chemically roughening the jacket surface and using localized heating to roughen the surface. The roughened jacket surface improves friction characteristics of a load bearing member assembly.

摘要:
A flexible traction organ that can be wound and unwound, in particular for passenger and/or goods lifts, said organ comprising at least one stranded cable consisting of a tensile resistant material. The core strand of each stranded cable is surrounded by a flexible thermoplastic plastic layer. A production line for embedding several stranded cables in a flexible thermoplastic layer comprises a respective reel for unwinding the stranded cable, a device for accurately aligning the stranded cable, a heating element for pre-heating the stranded cable, at least one extruder for co-extruding the stranded cable in a flexible plastic sheathing, a cooling vat, a reel storage unit, a cutting unit and a reserve reel. The extruder, a wire guide and at least one die can be adjusted individually, conjointly and in relation to one another on a plane (P) that runs at an angle to the cable plane (E). The unwound stranded cables are degreased and/or pre-treated to improve the adhesion of the plastic sheathing, and pre-heated to a temperature of approximately ±20° C. in relation to the melting temperature of the flexible, thermoplastic plastic that surrounds the core strand and are sheathed with liquefied plastic in the extruder.
